Live Webinar - Wednesday, August 6 - 11:00am ET
AI is reshaping the global business landscape, and communications service providers (CSPs) are central to enabling this transformation. While hyperscalers have dominated the AI connectivity conversation, the rise of new and distributed data centers is creating significant opportunities for service providers. CSPs are now critical to interconnecting the entire AI ecosystem, from enterprises to cloud providers.
This webinar dives into how AI applications and escalating traffic growth are driving unprecedented demand for metro and long-haul connectivity—from high-bandwidth wavelength services to dedicated private networks and dark fiber.
Join experts from Lumen, Heavy Reading, and Ciena as they present exclusive findings from a global survey on AI traffic growth and its impact on service provider networks. Discover how to harness AI-driven demand, optimize your network, and gain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving connectivity landscape.
